You missed the point. His choice symbolizes the control of Congress by Oligarchs. They in fact let those they have bought and paid for know that if their dictates are followed, then a lavish lifestyle waits in the wings.
Cantor is a lawyer. If he cared about the Constitution or about the precious freedoms that Americans are blessed with, he could have made ‘the choice’ to fight for American values by joining with any number of organizations that stand for these values. But he chose the sugar instead.
And to think this guy was in line to be Speaker of the House.
In a truly free society, people should be free to choose where they want to work and what they want to do.. without being judged.
If Cantor chooses to pursue a lucrative career on Wall Street, I have no issues with it. It’s his business. I wish him luck. I have no issues with Wall Street. I have no issues with making money. I don’t expect Cantor to work at a gas station.
Sen. Phil Gramm went to work for a Wall Street firm after he left the Senate. I don’t recall any complaints about it.
